Xenia Xbox 360 Emulator Successfully Ported To Xbox Series X|S

The Xenia Xbox 360 emulator originally made for PC has been ported to Xbox Series X|S. It has been ported in the form of a third-party app.

z2g834d ago

cool but not sure why this is even needed. both the xbox one and the series x|s can natively run xbox 360 games... unless this is to get around titles that haven't been unlocked via license or something - but i wonder if it supports auto hdr, 4k resolutions and the bumped up framerates like running them natively does

Potential to run every single 360 game

Orchard834d ago

Also supports un-released games, like the Goldeneye remake. Enhancements are possible too.

Sgt_Slaughter834d ago

Allows for greater backwards compatibility as well as support for different resolutions, unreleased games such as Goldeneye 007 XBLA (the cancelled remaster from 2007-2008), game removed from the Marketplace (Daytona USA HD for example), etc..

It's adding another layer of value to owning an Xbox Series console at this point, for $250 a Series S that can play consoles from 360 and back at 1440p/4K and 60fps is an incredible value that's making me consider getting one. Not to mention next gen support.

Cthulhu70833d ago

I love the series S backwards compatibility. Playing games like GTA 4 & Red Dead Redemption again has been phenomenal. The Xbox series S is probably one of the best consoles I've ever owned.

CobraKai833d ago

Yeah. Series X/S BC is great, but limited since it was all in the hands of MS adapting titles to run on Xbox. This seems to unlock potential to play games MS couldn’t or didn’t adapt for bc.

That's pretty awesome. Support for UWP apps running on Xbox was a great idea.

porkChop834d ago

How do you actually install it?

Sgt_Slaughter833d ago (Edited 833d ago )

There's two ways of doing it, either through Developer mode or Retail. There's plenty of YouTube videos that can walk you through it and it's pretty easy. A UWP program/app stands for Universal Windows Platform, and a lot of them have been working on Xbox hardware for the last five or more years. Dolphin (GameCube/Wii) and XBSX2 (PS2) are also getting updates that work on Series consoles, and PS3/Wii U/3DS/Switch are possible in the future as well.

porkChop833d ago

Oh ok. I have XBSX2, I guess it installs the same way.

CobraKai833d ago

I tried doing a PS2 emulator on retail mode but I never got it to work. I’m too scurred to try it in developer mode

gangsta_red833d ago

You would never guess who was one of the people who worked on the compatibility for this ...

Gamers Concerned About Borderlands 4 Potentially Costing $80, Gearbox Chief Randy Pitchford Replies

Randy writes: "A) Not my call. B) If you’re a real fan, you’ll find a way to make it happen. My local game store had Starflight for Sega Genesis for $80 in 1991 when I was just out of high school working minimum wage at an ice cream parlor in Pismo Beach and I found a way to make it happen."

*no one buys the game*

Randy: "Where are our real fans?"

*gamers stare back*

Real fan? What the actual f*** man

Does he actually read back what he writes before he posts

neutralgamer19921h ago

I was the biggest BL fan. I played the original solo for so many times. I pre ordered BL2 that loot chest edition and loved it. I bought BL3 on sale and never even touched it's DlC and have very little interest in 4th. For a series that started so strong it's just amazing how much nonsense this series has become with idiot choices

Goodguy018h ago

Still hate this guy's PR work lol. Hopefully game has gameshare.

gold_drake8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

Pretty excited for this the art style I wish was slightly more distinct that Streets of rage but I'd be lying if I said I didn't love some Shinobi.
Really feeling It's the year of retro revivals for me

Shinobi
Terminator
Gex
Croc
Tomb raider IV -vi
Thps 3+4
Oblivion

It's a good year to be an old dude stuck in the past.

COD 2025 Rumored to Be Black Ops 7 to See the Return of Wallrunning Per Datamined Files in COD HQ

There's even a video of wallrunning enabled in Black Ops 6 by messing with the game's files.

jjb19815h ago

Id rather have wallrunning than this omni-movement crap where people are sliding backwards upstairs.

FIELDMARSHALL_P3h ago

Just go back to normal human stuff wall running and that omni stuff is too much lol. I was good back in the day but this is too much

franwex3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Wall running while Omni jumping!!

TheColbertinator2h ago

Wallrunning is dirt in FPS games. I can only stand it in action games like Prince of Persia at best.
